(2) YA Fourteen-year-old George has felt responsible for his younger brother Monty ever since the death of their father, a heavyweight fighter. George passes on the boxing lessons Dad taught him and is equally intent on teaching Monty about life outside the ring. The fight sequences, fraternal dynamics, and memorable cast of eccentric characters make for some riveting episodes in the rough, tough-talking book.
